Hi Teeners,

I know there is one recent thread asking for recommended tires for 16" wheels. But since I only have 6x15 wheels, and planning of looking for a new tires for my recent 5 lug conversion.

Street driving only and that looks nice and closer to accurate speedometer reading.

I don't know if 205x60x15 will be okay and I hope not 605x65x15 since my 71 has that size on a pedrini and it looks so tall and front tires grinding inner body during full turn.

My current 205x50x15 is too low. Speedometer reading compare to cellphone GPS has around 8 to 10 mph difference.

Thanks again and God Bless!
